creating self worth

Life can be so active and fruitfully busy even at eighty, was hard to believe, till I met this vivacious, loving Marathi and Art teacher. No, she was not teaching to a group of toddlers or teenagers, she was surrounded by a group of ladies in their mid thirties or forties

At an age when one just counts days with monotonous routine, that lady was remarkably different. She had started classes for middle-aged women with a thought of giving some feeling of self worth to them. She was running the classes for free so that money didn’t become hindrance in taking out time for them.


Create some self worth, don’t limit yourself to kitchen only, learn and spread your knowledge to others were some of the loving advices given to the class. Her face lit up with joy when one student told her how much satisfied she felt after spending one hour with her colors, for which she was never able to take time out.

“I will also teach you how you can convert this hobby in business opportunity, half of my day is spent in planning for the classes, and I want to pass on my entire knowledge to the next Generation, I am teaching art to my grand children also. At the end of the day I feel completely satisfied with my life, I also feel that life appears short if you have taken up some cause and you are working towards that.”

That gave me a secret wish that I’d also like to follow her footsteps someday in my life.
